2face Idibia slams N100million lawsuit against Icon magazine for libel

2face Idibia has slammed a N100million suit against soft-sell magazine, Icon Weekly, for libel. The Media/Entertainment Law Firm of L & A- Legal Consultants has filed libel proceedings on behalf of  2face, at the Ikeja High Court asking the court to award their client the sum of N100million being damages for the libelous publication posted on the magazine’s online and print platforms.

In March this year, Icon alleged that 2face committed adultery by impregnating a 'Lagos top banker' who is supposedly his account officer in one of the new generation banks and that infact, the lady had every intention of keeping the baby. The story went viral, which 2face later denied.

A source close to the music icon said the story, which was found to be false, made 2face lose a very lucrative deal and caused ripples between him and his wife. Icon weekly is said to have approached 2face’s team for discussions on a possible out of court settlement.

Tuface is a nice guy and he knows how to take a punch, but for him to have instituted a 100m lawsuit, that issue must have being very touchy! that magazine wouldn't be the first to write rubbish about him! Well I hope they can settle out of court, cos I am very certain they do not have a 100m, cos if they did, they would have to write sensational stories for a living.

I dont blame d magazine.its his modus operandi.so what will 2baba do abt d ida true stories? I will accuse him if I find my dog pregnant.no be my fault.

Anonymous said...

2 things happened,Tuface definately slept with the banker,just like paul of psquare slept with Elshamah Igbanoi,cuz if there was no sex,the ladies involved cant come out from the blues to say de were impregnated,secondly d banker in question probably is pregnant and dznt know the father is,we all know how female bankers sleep with customers in order to meet their targets!!! Well whatevet the case,adultery was involved period,i sha support his lawsuit,but wr should dress how we want to be addressed,if tuface dressed his joystick,he would be scandal free today

It's becos of stupid retarded comments like these that things keep going wrong in our country. Someone has committed libel and is being sued and you are saying it is rubbish, he should take it bcos he is a celeb? How retarded and redundant is that? So magazines should go about printing thrash about people bcos they are celebs? Or bcos they 'brought it on thermselves'? Don't be silly joor!

Kemikal said...

2face Idibia suing for being branded a rampant sex maniac is like Boko Haram suing for being blamed for a bomb that exploded in Pakistan. Boko Haram exploded nothing in Pakistan and 2face Idibia probably did impregnate the said banker, but based on 2face Idibia reputation for sleeping around, he ought to take it on the chin, shut it and not profit from the news article. 2face Idibia is not the Pope, and does not a squeaky clean image when it comes to women. He knows it. Everybody knows it. The truth must be told.

2face Idibia can never swear that he's never cheated on Anne Macauley before and after they married. A leopard can never change its spots. 2face Idibia is who he is: a cheater. Period. He'll always shamelessly cheat and sleep around.

2face Idibia, about your lawsuit, go sit your arse down. Se nah now you suddenly care about your image / reputation? How about the times you slept around in LONDON? We know your secrets. How about the women you got pregnant? How about the numerous women and girls you slept with?

2face Idibia, I go slander, libel and defame you and you can't do Jack about it. I dare you to come London and try your stupid litigation and see if I no go bankrupt your silly arse. You're a disgrace to black men and black people. You're a BAD ROLE MODEL. Shame on you and sex maniacs like you. It's about time you act your age, stop sleeping around and keep you d!ck inside your trouser. Smh.
